Beautiful Christmas Flowers

If you are in the market to Buy Christmas Flowers this year, then you should plan on including poinsettias in your arrangements.

Although the plant can survive cut in a vase for a couple of days, you are much better off leaving the plant intact and enjoying it for weeks or months instead.

There are many legends explaining the origins of the flower, including tales of miracles in Mexico and Native American curses. Aztec king Montezuma believed that the flower’s bright red petals were created with an Aztec goddess’ blood who had died broken hearted, because her chosen one did not love her back.

Whether you choose to believe any of those legends or share them with your holiday guests, you can be sure that the poinsettia will be a festive addition to your holiday décor.
